That crazy diamond is shining on again.
Long-time Pink Floyd member David Gilmour just announced he will perform four U.S. concerts this year as part of an international tour in support of his forthcoming solo album “Luck and Strange.”
His first two North American gigs will be at Los Angeles’ Hollywood Bowl on Tuesday, Oct. 29 and Wednesday, Oct. 30.
After that, the 78-year-old Rock and Roll Hall of Famer drops into the Big Apple for a pair of concerts at New York City’s Madison Square Garden on Monday, Nov. 4 and Tuesday, Nov. 5.
While we can’t confirm or deny whether Gilmour will perform Pink Floyd classics in addition to solo tracks on this brief jaunt, records show he has played favorites like “The Great Gig in the Sky,” “Wish You Were Here,” “Money,” “Time” and “Comfortably Numb” at concerts in year’s past, according to Set List FM.
If you can’t wait to catch Gilmour live this year, tickets can be scooped up for all North American concerts as soon as today.
